Abstract
The project which is described is the result of an interdisciplinary collaboration between university lecturers (mathematicians, physicists and biologists) and primary school teachers designed to prepare a comprehensive plan for the teaching of science in the first two grades of the Italian primary school. The project, tested practically for the past three years in over 20 classes, consists of nine units for experimental work and seeks to guide children: to acquire mathematical concepts with a plurality of approaches, often by means of amusing games; to describe objects in terms of properties, to notice the morphology of animals and plants with particular attention to morphologic variability, fundamental to evolution; and to observe objects and organisms in order to identify similarities and differences
